The TVS Star City Plus has received several upgrades during the BS6 transition, and this stylish commuter motorcycle from the Hosur-based two-wheeler maker aims to grab a chunk of the Hero Splendor-dominated segment. To do so, the Star City Plus gets several premium components such as LED lighting and a petal-type rotor at the front – the latter was added to the 2021 model.
